摘要:Phase one of our Engineering Leadership Project (ELP) revealed engineers’ widespread resistance to the idea of leadership [10,11]. To test this claim, we conducted a focus group with engineers who selfidentified as leaders—experienced entrepreneurs. Our qualitative analysis of the resulting transcript resulted in eight themes, one of which we elucidate in this paper— “leadership education is the responsibility of engineering educators”. Our paper examines this theme and identifies four recommendations for engineering educators.
